Important Notices

»To prevent salt build-up and sticking controls, submerge the

empty housing in clean, freshwater. Operate the controls

several times each while underwater to ush out any residue.

»Never leave a housing in a rinse tank, even if it is the only

system in the tank. Many catastrophic oods happen when the

user walks away from a housing while it is in the rinse tank.

»Do not use alcohol, cleaning agents, spray lubricants, Rain-X,

or other solvents on the housing or lens port. Use of an

incompatible chemical compound can damage the plastic and

o-rings, and may result in leaking.

»Always assemble in a cool, dry location. Opening the housing

in a humid environment will lead to fogging.

»This housing is designed for use with the Canon SX620 HS

camera as shipped by the manufacturer. This housing is not

compatible with any other camera models.

Setting Up Your Housing

Opening the Housing

1. Thoroughly dry the housing if wet. To reduce the likelihood of

fogging, only open the housing in a cool, dry place. If possible, open

only in an air conditioned room.

2. Depress both latch buttons and rotate the latch away from the

housing.

3. The back of the housing will be compressed by pressure after

taking it underwater or in an airplane. Rotate the latch FULLY to

break the seal of the housing.

4. Lift the latch up and away from housing.

5. Carefully open the housing back and rotate it 180º to the opposite

side of the housing. Do not use metal objects or tools to pry the

back open, as this may damage the o-ring or sealing surface.

Installing the Camera

1. Remove adhesive backing from anti-reection ring. Attach ring to

front of camera lens.

2. Remove any lanyard, neck strap, or accessory attached to the

camera.

3. Pull out any camera control knobs until they stop.

Closing the Housing

1. Clean and lightly lubricate the housing o-ring. Use Ikelite lubricant

ONLY. Use only enough lubricant to make the o-ring appear

uniformly shiny. Lubricant is not a sealant. Excessive lubricant may

attract debris and adversely affect the seal.

2. Rotate the housing back 180º until it meets the front.

3. Latch the housing back and press the latch towards the housing

until the lock buttons click into place.

4. Check the latch. The buttons will not be depressed when the latch

is properly locked. Pulling on the latch without pressing the buttons

should not allow the latch to open.

Setting Up An External Strobe

About the Built-In Flash

Due to the opaque housing design, the internal “built-in” ash can

only be used to trigger external ber optic strobes. To shoot ash

photography underwater, an external strobe must be connected to

the housing and then triggered by a ber optic cord. The camera ash

must be RAISED and activated in order to re an external strobe.

We recommend attaching an external strobe for optimal color and

clarity in a wide variety of shooting situations, including daylight

photography.

Attaching a Fiber Optic Cord

1. Check the end of the ber optic cord to ensure that it is clean and

smooth.

2. Ensure that the ber optic cord o-ring is in place. This o-ring does

not provide waterproong, however, it does keep the ber optic cord

in place.
